Exegesis
The final prepositional phrase birkush {בִּרְכֻ֥שׁ | birḵūš} ‘with property’ modified by gadol {גָּדֽוֹל | gādôl} ‘great’ depicts not only liberation but also substantial material outcome. English renders the Hebrew parataxis with coordinated clauses and preserves the forward-moving sequence from oppression, to divine judgment, to release with resources.
Root and etymology
רכשresh–kaf–shin
“to acquire, gather property”
In context — Genesis 15:14
And also the nation that they will serve, I will judge, and after that they will go out with great property .
